Species code:	SALRD
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Bacteroidetes; Sphingobacteria; Sphingobacteriales; Rhodothermaceae; Salinibacter (TaxID: 309807) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Salinibacter ruber DSM 13855 is Gram-negative, extremely halophilic, aerobic, heterotrophic, motile and red-pigmented (high proportion of carotenoids in its membrane) bacterium belonging to the Cytophaga-Flexibacter-Bacteroides group. This bacterium coexists in significant colonies with halophilic archaea under saline conditions. In contrast to other bacteria they do not regulate their intracellular salt conditions through proton pumps, but instead their protein makeup has adapted to be functional under high ionic conditions.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: Yes Interaction: No Number of membranes: 2 Number of inteins:0
Statistics:	Number of SALRD entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 2812 (232 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 2580 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
